Reigning champion Maria Sharapova was an easy second-round winner, while last year's runner-up Simona Halep was a shocking loser Wednesday at the French Open.
The second-seeded former world No. 1 star Sharapova blew past fellow Russian Vitalia Diatchenko 6-3, 6-1 on Court Chatrier, while on-fire 33-year-old Croat Mirjana Lucic-Baroni vanquished the third-seeded Romanian Halep 7-5, 6-1 on Court Lenglen.
